A child lies in the undergrowth
waiting for age.
Somewhere else a cable snaps
taking its cargo up into the ether.
Under silk covers
bodies wriggle and splutter.
A sudden burst of rain
sprinkles relief along the motorway.
At some point
engineers cluster on either side of a gash in the valley
hawking hopes
ideas and sound advice
across air that will contain no distance
